This Labor Day, we’re celebrating the people who keep Oregon’s small businesses moving.

The owners opening the doors before sunrise.

The employees who know customers by name.

The entrepreneurs taking a chance on an idea.

And the teams solving problems, serving their communities, and doing the work that keeps local economies strong.

Running a small business takes more than hard work, and you don’t have to figure everything out on your own.

The Clatsop SBDC Network is here year-round with no-cost, confidential, one-on-one business advising to help business owners navigate challenges, pursue opportunities, and keep moving forward.

Unexpected disruptions can take many forms—from wildfires and natural disasters to supply chain issues and technology outages.

A business resiliency plan gives you a road map for how your business will respond, recover, and continue operating when normal processes are disrupted. Consider whether your plan addresses:

✔ Critical business functions
✔ Employee communication
✔ Supply chain risks
✔ Cybersecurity and data protection
✔ Financial preparedness
✔ Business continuity and recovery

Preparedness starts before a disruption happens. Oregon SBDC Network advisers can help you identify risks and develop a plan tailored to your business.

Your competitors can teach you a lot. Researching similar businesses can help you identify gaps in the market, understand industry trends, and discover ways to differentiate your business instead of competing on price alone.

Knowing what others are doing well and where customers may still have unmet needs can help you make smarter decisions about positioning, marketing, and growth.

For most businesses, acquiring a new customer is significantly more expensive, often costing five to seven times more, than retaining a current one.

That’s why customer retention should be part of every retailer’s growth strategy. Loyalty programs, email newsletters, personalized outreach, and exclusive promotions can help turn one-time shoppers into repeat customers.

Strong customer relationships don’t just increase sales—they create long-term stability and sustainable growth for your business.

Retail Tip: Your online presence may be shaping a customer’s first impression before they ever walk through your door.

According to BrightLocal’s 2026 Local Consumer Review Survey, 97% of consumers read reviews online when browsing for businesses.

Along with your reviews, your website, Google Business Profile, social media accounts, and business hours all play an important role in helping customers decide where to shop.

Take a few minutes this week to check your online listings and update anything that may be outdated.
